One high school football coach I covered back in the day was only inches away from a goalpost, not installed properly, that fell as he was walking away. That close to having a leg badly broken and probably only a couple feet from a fatal skull fracture.

And that doesn't include a classmate that was killed by a soccer goalpost that fell on him as he was taking the net down my sophomore year of high school.

Had a football game many years ago end with the posts coming down. Two hours after the game, the police came and were hunting in the grass around the one with flashlights for something. Found out later that a girl got here finger caught at the point where it broke and she lost two fingers. The cops were looking for them.
